PLEASE HELP: Solve for x. 3(x-1) - 4x greater than or equal to -3

Our inequality is 3(x-1) - 4x ≥-3. We can solve this like we solve for x in a regular equation. If I multiply 3(x-1), our new inequality is 3x -3 - 4x ≥ -3. If we add 3 to both sides and subtract 4x from 3x we have -x ≥ 0. But we want the value of x to be positive, not negative. So we multiply both sides by -1 and change the sign from greater than to less than. We get x<span> ≤ </span>0.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

40 popcorns and 90 pretzels sold.

============

Let the number of popcorns is x and pretzels is y.

Set up equations:

x + y = 130
2.5x + 2y = 280

Solve by elimination, multiply the first equation by 2 and subtract from the second equation:

2.5x + 2y - 2x - 2y = 280 - 2*130
0.5x = 280 - 260
0.5x = 20
x = 20/0.5
x = 40

Find y:

40 + y = 130
y = 130 - 40
y = 90
